有一篇有关年轻人的好消费。网址在下面。http://gzmp.dayoo.com/gb/content/2005-07/07/content_2126172.htm这是一篇CHINA DAILY 上的有关现在青少年消费情况 但字数好像不太符合你的要求 呵呵不好意思。原网址是：http://www.china.org.cn/english/2006/Oct/182969.htmUrban teenagers in China are getting a bigger say as new consumers, a recent survey found, but this emerging market has yet to be fully tapped.About 44 percent of students aged 13 to 18 have their own bank accounts, and have an average of more than 200 yuan (US$25) in monthly pocket money, according to CTR Market Research, a major market research company in China.CTR and China Youth & Children Research Centre interviewed some 8,000 students in eight big cities. The researchers say that a sample of this size can represent the views of 2.45 million teenagers in these large metropolises.According to the results, teenagers spent 62.5 percent of their pocket money on food and beverages. Youth are also shown to have spent an average of 82 yuan (US$10) per month on online games. Stationery, comic books and magazines were also high on the list of purchases.The research was carried out in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenyang, Nanjing, Wuhan, Chengdu and Xi'an from April to September.Thanks to the country's one-child policy and robust economic growth, today's urban teenagers typically enjoy better financial support than their predecessors who were not from single-child families.According to the report, half of their pocket money was received at the beginning of the Chinese Lunar New Year when parents and other family members traditionally give money to young relatives. On average, young people in the larger cities get 1,400 to 2,000 yuan (US$175 to US$250) in such gifts.These teenagers' pocket money amounts to an annual consumption demand of more than 5 billion yuan (US$625 million). Though only a tiny portion of the country's total consumption, this market represents a niche that domestic businesses can better target.In the first half of this year, the country's total retail sales of consumer goods reached 3.6 trillion yuan (US$460 billion), up by 13.1 percent over the same period last year, or a real growth of 12.4 percent if price factors were deducted.But such double-digit growth pales in comparison with that of fixed-asset investment and trade volume, which surged by 29.8 percent and 23.4 percent respectively.Further tapping teenagers' consumer potential will both boost domestic consumption as a growth engine for the national economy and create opportunities for domestic companies in the country's changing consumption structure.Besides, China has become a rapidly aging country. Statistics indicate that between 2000 and 2005, the proportion of people under the age of 14 declined by 2.62 percentage points to 20.27 percent of the mainland's population, while that of people aged 60 or above increased by 0.76 percentage points to 11.03 percent of the total.This underlying demographic shift will make it necessary for domestic enterprises to compete hard for a consumer base that will shrink as the number of young customers declines. "Chinese teenagers are a huge group of consumers, but the study of their purchasing habits and lifestyles remain inadequate," said Shen Ying, manager of CTR's media and brand department.(China Daily October 5, 2006)
